How will pending criminal case affect selection in civil services


07-May-2023 (In Criminal Law)
I have been named as accused by a person living in my neighbourhood in a case under section 304 of IPC,though my name does not appear in FIR.at present police is doing investigation and till now has not made any chargesheet.I am quite confident that if the case goes to court i will be acquitted.but I am quite worried over the fact that for the last 2 years I am preparing for civil services exam and state civil services exam and if i get selected i will not be getting appointment letter due to pendency of criminal case against me(this is due to the fact that disposal of case takes a lot of time in India even if someone is innocent).I want to know what to do,should i continue my preparation without worrying about this case or what other options i have?

You have to mention in application form if it is requited or given in the column that the pending case is going on investigate against you with detail . There does not make much difference till convicted . you should go ahead

Dear
You should continue preparing for exam. This will not affect you unless convicted by the Criminal Court. This also can be considered at the time of verification when you are being selected. It is in the best interest of yous that you should continue preparing for exams. Best of luck.

Continue your preparation for the Civil Service exams. Do not let the Investigation be a deterrent . Since your name is not in the FIR, in all likelihood the Investigating Officer if convinced with you, shall not include your name
